Rivers State governor, Rotimi Amaechi, has pointed accusing fingers at the ruling Peoples Democratic Party of breaking the peace accord facilitated by the Nigeria Police Force ahead of the 2015 general election.
Amaechi, who was apparently reacting to the attack on an APC ward-to-ward rally in Obio/Akpor Local Government Area, where several persons sustained injuries, insisted that the PDP had made nonsense of the peace agreement facilitated by the Assistant Inspector General of Police, Zone 6, Calabar, Tunde Ogunsakin, in February 2015.
The governor also insisted that the attacks on APC members were becoming unbearable, even as he described the peace accord as a ruse.
According to the governor, "The question anybody would be asking now is that what happened to the peace accord. The peace accord is a ruse because not even the police is investigating what is happening.
"The peace accord was signed with the police as witness. In fact the peace accord was even facilitated by the police.
"The PDP in the state is making a nonsense of the entire peace accord because our people are not allowed to hold meetings without interference.
"At some point, we just avoid them; at some point, any area we designate for our meetings, before you know it, they (PDP) will go and erect canopies there."
